Photos from Titan have emerged on the web

Photos from the Huygens probe that successfully landed on Titan, Saturn's largest moon, have been posted on the web.

One of the main reasons for sending Huygens to Titan is that its nitrogen atmosphere, rich in methane, and its surface may contain many chemicals of the kind that existed on the young Earth. Combined with the Cassini observations, Huygens will afford an unprecedented view of Saturn’s mysterious moon.
